“I will atone for my past actions and will guide Fodlan and my Kingdom to a bright future that it so desperately deserves!” ⬇️Master Thread and Pinned Art Credit Below⬇️

At the top of the world tree Alister would find the dawnshard already devoid of its power. However residual traces of mana left behind could still be enough for the madman to replicate. /It will take time... But other option would only bring Prime's wrath upon me./

Relax dear, she is just here to get a rise out of you.

I realize this... Perhaps we can find a creative outlet for that anger, maybe a potion or two to change her appearance.

I mean, I usually have good ideas. I'll hand you my research into dragons and let you go from there on making something to turn her into something else.

Now that's a thought, enjoy yourself dear.

I feel like I've opened a rather large can of worms on Sandalphon. But it is what I do, I am her enabler after all.

"Horizon... Damn this time distorted nonsense...! I need to see my friend...!" He watched everything unfold through the aqua mirror in his library

/Hm... The shattered skies have been sealed. A blessing in disguise... I will be able to alter causality without interruption./ The fell version of Alister noted to himself with a laugh as he continued his research into the paracausal properties of the drained dawnshard fragment.

Reiterating, Victoria is remarkably stubborn, its both a good and bad trait and I wouldn't change that at all.

I would, but she is remarkably stubborn for a reason, even I wouldn't be able to get her to relent when it comes to demon hunting. My apologies for her though.

"A play, that suspiciously has the premise of a certain Victor Frankenstein. It could be interesting. Perhaps I should go watch..."

"I'm more a specialist in alchemy... However Victoria, my fiancee, knows more on matters of shape-shifting. Consult with her."

"Curses are still fundamentally magic, the application is just different."

"A closed off world? How curious... I guess I'll be heading off to Askr for now to research this phenomenon."

Despite their current situation of being hunted by Horizon. Alister still couldn't help but smile, for the first time in a very, very long time he felt at peace. He looked to his companion in Victoria and offered a small smile before returning to focus on his studies.

Her birthday was on Tuesday. She hadn't even noticed. Victoria had her attentions elsewhere and had started losing track of time in her hiding. It was alright though. Allister was with her. She felt very safe.
